I don't have an answer but some suggestions: - Uninstall and re-install your drivers for your FCA1616. - Try creating a new project, record some audio and see if it happens in a new project

I don't think anything is wrong. If you created some of those clip regions by swiping then it creates a cross-fade at those points in all lanes. Then if you drag the cross-fade all the fades at that same point will move together. This is intentional behavior for comping multiple takes together. I think you may be able to move the fade for each lane separately with a key modifier but I don't remember for sure.

Those are windows settings. If they are not staying then it has something to do with windows and not Cakewalk.

Copied from "scook" in a different post: W is return to zero CTRL+Spacebar on stop rewind to now Spacebar stop CTRL+W and Track View On Stop, Rewind to Now menu option swap CTRL+Spacebar and Spacebar

Check that you don't have looping enabled. Also, there is a setting for either returning to start or returning to the last playhead location.

Or using offset mode you can do this as well.

Bill Phillips: I am not sure the error your blue rectangle is highlighting. Are you saying those are wrong notes? It looks to me that Melodyne is in polyphonic detection mode and is just detecting multiple tones at a particular time.

As far as getting a midi file into an audio waveform the easiest way is to just freeze the track (the little * on the track header). Of course this assumes you have the midi routed to a synth and the synth output routed to a track. Then when you freeze the audio will get "recorded" on the audio track of the synth output.

I don't know the answer to that but if you have tried it and it doesn't save with the template then you might already have your answer. Another option might be to setup a Workspace and see if that saves the meter's range setting?

This could be an issue that you need to report to Cakewalk. One thing to try is to bounce your First Melodyne take before you record a new take and see if it does something different.

Not built into Cakewalk. There are 3rd party ones you can buy that will give you this and more but they will cost you something. Maybe someday it will get added.

The only real reason to bounce a virtual instrument or synth to an audio file is if you want to free up resources from a CPU hungry synth or project. Or, I suppose some people may just like to look at the waveforms of things as they mix. I do this regularly with Drums so that I work with them as though I recorded them and am not so tempted to keep going back to the midi to tweak things. However, you can keep it as a midi track and do the same things you can do to an audio track it is just that you won't have the audio waveforms to look at. You can apply effect, add VSTs etc. just like an audio track because the output of the synth or virtual instrument actually has to go to an audio track to be heard.

When you say "select" do you mean click on the track and then play something on your keyboard? Normally selecting something doesn't make it play unless you are talking about playing a VSTI using your keyboard. This is only the case if your input echo follows your selection. If you mean when you solo the track it plays the wrong instrument then you should check that your tracks a re referencing the correct snyth. If you are using simple instrument tracks then you will have to open the inspector, 'i' key, and check the midi in and out as well as the audio channel it is feeding.

This is a problem that I have noticed from time to time with take lanes. Back in the Cakewalk/Gibson days I even sent in a project that reproduced this problem. They acknowledge that they could reproduce it from my project but I never heard anything after that.

I you right click on an audio clip and look at its properties in the inspector you can make it a "groove" clip. This will then allow it to follow the temp. You can also "ctl click" on the edge of a clip and stretch it. See pp 66 of the Bandlab Users manual

Are you saying the bug is that it exports slowly or is there some other issue? Do you have audio files that are being stretched with the tempo changes?

Then make sure to route the outputs of your tracks to the master.

Kontakt 6 is on my list but I don't know if I really need it. Are there libraries that are requiring 6 right now? I can't figure out if I get any benefit from it now or if it is just a future proof thing? Opinions?

You either need to assign your master bus output to your headphones or do it with your interface. Many interfaces have there own mixer and settings. If you tell us what your interface is someone might be able to help you with that

Yep, Saw this and got it

You should be able to assign your orphaned automation to the desired CC or plugin parameter. I would use the automation lanes for this purpose. I am not at my DAW right now so I don't remember the details. I don't know why it is losing the connection but you should be able to re-assign the envelope without having to re-do it. Look in the reference guide and check this thread on how to reassign an envelope. http://forum.cakewalk.com/Solved-Removing-or-reassigning-an-orphaned-automation-envelope-m3586154.aspx

Try screen sets or lenses.

It could be that you have a locked screen set or lens enabled. If they are locked then they won't update when you hit save.

I am not at my computer right now but if you add an envelope to the desired track, just like you would add volume or pan automation, you should be able to select whatever CC you want.
